Kansas City Film Director Brandon Bender.
About Me
I started down the creative path at a young age. I've always explored cultures and watched movies like it was really happening. In my business life I seek unique visuals & tactics that stand out in this over advertised world. In my personal life I seek the highs & lows of human emotion. I try to find ways to capture it and explain the story. My end goal is to land in a place where I can create amazing films with other talented people. I'm working towards the "Hollywood level" everyday but for now, I'll explore as many creative outlets as I can find.
The work above represents about 1% of my full portfolio (not even the best part of it either) I have been very busy, but I will be updating the portfolio content soon.
I like to use words that aren't in the dictionary.
I am currently working at a new firm in Kansas City called Silo88. I handle their video production.
If you're interested in bouncing a project/film off me, I'd love to hear about it.

Film
Film comes first because film is my passion :) Directing & writing films is what keeps me up at night.
I have shot a number of short films & music videos. Recently I had the chance to be the director of photography for Director Brain Wayne. I have four films in preproduction.
Photography
Capturing human emotion is one of the most fascinating things we can look at. In my work I spend hours on a set searching for that micro second of truth we so often try and hide from the world.
To date, my longest shoot sits at 10 hours.
Web Development
I am completely self taught when it comes to web development. I ran my own firm for a little over two years (Mseven). It was one of the best risks I've taken. I learned more in a few years than most I'm sure.
I am now working at the coolest web firm in Kansas City, Silo88.com
Music
I have been producing music since I was 17 years old. I have focused on hip hop & pop in these past few years.
I now have two extremely talented artists signed to my label Gridlock Ent. You can check out Mic & Jami LaChance at the following links.

Motion Graphics
As the rise of motion graphics and 3D began to show up all over films and TV, I've become very interested in all of its uses. I have done plenty of high quality projects for small business and myself.
I now want to learn all I can about CGI/3D.
Biofilic
Biofilic is a green roof start-up company based in Kansas City, MO. I am one of two partners in this exciting venture.
